For more than two years I have been leading the Michael G. Santos Foundation. With support from The California Wellness Foundation, and others, Michael Santos and I were able to create, design and implement a re-entry program. The program is based around Michael's journey through federal prison. I am proud to announce that we have a new program that will soon be coming to market. The program includes 50 lesson plans, and 10 one hour videos, totaling 60-hours. I expect incarcerated juveniles who complete the 60-hour values based, goal oriented program to receive credit towards their high school diploma or GED. I know our re-entry program has authenticity because it was created by someone who lived the message through 25 years of imprisonment.
Recently, the foundation sponsored a video introducing the Straight-A Guide program. I attach the video below.
